Pickup currently unavailable at Calgary Pick-up Location
Unlock the bold and unique flavor of hops with our Citrus Cardamom Bitters, a unique ingredient for any beverage enthusiast. Designed for both digestive wellness and cocktail innovation, these bitters combine our farm grown hops with the lively zest of citrus and earthy depth of cardamom.
Digestive Tincture: Experience the natural benefits of hops in soothing digestive discomfort. The bitterness of hops helps activate stomach acids, aiding the digestive process and reducing bloating. A few drops in water or herbal tea offer a straightforward approach to digestive wellness.
Cocktail Bitter: Balanced blend of hops, grapefruit, orange, cardamom, and coriander in our Stormy Bitters. The grapefruit notes of the hops pair perfectly with gin, making it an exceptional choice to replace other citrus bitters. Rum is another great match for these bitters. These bitters add a unique citrus punch to classic cocktails, enhancing both flavor and experience.
For the craft beer connoisseur or the cocktail explorer, our Bitters deliver a taste adventure like no other, making them a must-have in your beverage arsenal. Savor the balanced flavors and discover new taste horizons with each drop.
Digestive Tincture
Hops have a long history of use as a natural digestive aid, gently soothing the stomach and promoting healthy digestion. Incorporated into various traditional practices, hops offer a holistic approach to digestive wellness, providing comfort and support after meals.
To harness the digestive benefits of hops, simply add a few drops of the bitters to a glass of water or herbal tea before or after meals. Allow the tincture to infuse into the beverage, and sip slowly to soothe the stomach and promote healthy digestion. Adjust the dosage according to personal preference and digestive needs for optimal results.
My favorite is a few drops in bubbly water/Soda Stream.
Cocktail Bitter
Our mixologist Eric put together this review of our bitters:
Stormy Bitters are a great addition to some already great classics.
Mezcal Paloma for instance. Phenomenal! The bitters give it a bit of an extra citrus punch. And cardamom and mezcal taste good together.
I think rum is the top spirit that works with Stormy Bitters (think Tiki drinks that mixes citrus, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom). Dark and Stormy with Stormy Hops!
